Activities, Achievements and Performance during 2021
Group meetings were resumed and held in October and December, now located at St. Lawrence’s Church Hall, York, with encouraging attendances and excellent food and refreshements.
Activities contributing to the Group’s funds have included: -
-
Sales of donated books and magazines, railway timetables and memorabilia, cameras, volunteers’ badges and buttons, bringing in a total of £534.55.
-
Sale of new books and DVDs, Moorsline binders and sales proceeds from our stand at the York Model Railway Exhibition, bringing in a total of £1133.50.
The Group’s volunteers have participated in crewing of trains, plus maintenance and repairs of the NYMR’s permanent way, including the continual task of checking and oiling of fishplates along the whole of the line. Tracklaying was undertaken between Pickering High Mill and New Bridge, alongside and inside the new Carriage Stabling Facility. Other trackwork included ballasting, regulating and tamping at the land slip site at Beck Hole; completion of work on Bridge 27; reballasting at Newtondale Halt; re-railing in Pickering Long Siding; delivery of new rails and sleepers to Farworth. 4,500 scrap sleepers from Danby, donated by Network-Rail, were stripped for scrap to raise funds for NYMR during the pandemic shut-down.
Group funds and volunteers’ efforts have also been expended on repairs and overhauls to the Civil Engineer’s wagon fleet and on-track machines, including Weltrol E230908, Lowmacs B904152 & B905100, Plasser 12T Crane 81312, Coles Crane runner E273885, Tampers 73250 & 23309 and our Ballast Regulator; also numerous other sundry parts, materials, paint and tools.
Snowplough 18 has been transferred on loan to Kirkby Stephen, plus Drewry Diesel Shunter ED16 to DVLR at Murton for the start of restoration to working order.
